This past Sunday I had hogs show up for the first time in years. Aug.2012 through March 2013 I had a group of about 12 boars that stayed in the area until I left the last hog that I killed laying by the bait pile. Aug. 2016 there was a group of 8 boars that showed up on my trail camera for one afternoon and then no more. This time I have 4 hogs, one is a sow with two juveniles that go where she goes, the fourth is the biggest and comes out last but I can’t tell if it’s a boar or another sow.

I tried again yesterday afternoon but they wouldn’t step out into the open. Dang thing acted like it knew I was there but not sure where, it would come to the edge of a 12 yr old cutover snorting and occasionally grunting and stand there before spooking. The wind was in my favor but it was cooling down so I think the thermals got me busted. It would come back every 30 mins or so at a different location and do the same thing, snorting like a deer more than grunting, every time the deer and everything else would take off as soon as they heard it coming. The last time it came to the edge I swear it got mad, it grunted and clicked its teeth multiple times and then growled 3-4 times as it walked off.

Ya gotta love it when things fall into place! So this afternoon after the downpour I decided to head out to the stand to see if I could get a shot on one the remaining hogs, I got within 80 yds of my stand and they are already there. I stalked to within 70 yds of the hogs and dropped the sow with her two young uns running off. I wait to see if they were going to come back out when my wife texted me surprised at how soon she had heard me shoot. As soon as I go to respond to my wife they come out to check on momma so I tried to put a shot through one hoping it would catch the other one as well since they were side by side but don’t think I hit anything. They are probably too young to stand up against the pack of coyotes we have around here but I’ll keep a eye out for them.
